Last Battle Story

All is not well with the world! A great war had devas- tated the land and a nefarious power had established an empire where the good people like slaves.
But there was hope. The mighty Aarzak and his two companions, Alyssa and Max banded together to reclaim their homeland.
Using the secret martial art of JET-KWON-DO, Aarzak went to battle against Duke, master of TAE-KUNG-FU. In the end Aarzak was victorious and peace reigned in the land. However, before the battle was over, Gromm, Gross and Garokk, the three strongest and most evil warriors escaped. For three years, the trio plotted to get back in power.
One day, they staged a surprise attack on the capital city. Alyssa was captured and taken to the land of the unknown. Aarzak followed the trail of Alyssa’s captors to the Ultimate Savage Land, where he prepared to fight the three seemingly invincible foes.
After a fierce battle, Aarzak was able to defeat Gromm. However, in the midst of the fighting, Alyssa was taken by her captors to another location.
In his quest to find Alyssa, Aarzak met his brother Gross. Some time ago, Gross lost his memory and as a result, he turned to life of violence. To save Alyssa, Aarzak was forced to fight his brother. Luckily good triumphed over evil and Aarzak was able to restore Gross’ memory.
However, there was one Last Battle yet to be fought.
Garokk, the most powerful enemy had to be defeated. There is a secret to defeating Garokk which is contained in the sealed legacy of the creator of JET-KWON-DO. After much thought, Aarzak was able to break the seal and learn how to defeat Garokk. Even with this knowledge, the fighting continued for days. Yet in the end, Aarzak prevailed and Alyssa was rescued.
And so goes the legend of Aarzak, the last hero!

The Status Window will now appear. Here you can find out the current condition of and maximum values for Aarzak’s life, power and score.

Screen Signals and Options

During game play your screen will inform you of certain gains and losses.

Life Gauge: Aarzak’s life is monitored by the Life Gauge. Every time he is injured, it will decrease an increment until it finally reaches zero and the game ends.

Time: There is a time limit attached to every chapter. When the time reaches zero, Aarzak’s life will begin to decrease.

Power Up

When Aarzak is able to defeat his enemies in succession and continually increase his score, the red lamp of the Power Gauge begins to grow in length. When the lamp reaches the required white mark, Aarzak’s power is increased.
When Aarzak’s power increases, the condition of his body changes. He beefs up and so does the power of his attack methods. Now he will also suffer less damage from the enemy
This increase in power is cancelled at the completion of each chapter and he will return to his original condition.
The length of the red bar required for an increase in power varies for each chapter. It must meet the number of white marks according to the chapter number. In Chapter Four, the bar must reach the entire distance.

Labyrinth

There is one labyrinth to enter during each chapter. Here you can gain points and power with no time limit attached.
To enter a labyrinth, you must satisfy the conditions of the chapter. If entrance to the labyrinth is blocked, visit a new area to earn more points and power and then return to the labyrinth entrance for another try.
When inside the labyrinth there are rooms filled with enemies. To enter these rooms, press the D-Button upwards. After you have entered and left a room, you will not be allowed to pass through again. If you meet an ally inside the labyrinth, you will automatically be allowed to leave.

Conversation

During game play, Aarzak will have opportunities to speak with his allies and enemies. In some cases his Life
Gauge will be replenished when the conversation ends.
Pay close attention to these conversations.
They may provide you with hints to help you on your journey.

Now, Make Your Move

The Boss

A major battle takes place during every chapter between you and a boss enemy. If you don’t defeat him, then you will not be able to advance to the next chapter. He resides in one of the areas displayed in the Map Screen.
When you encounter this boss, his Life Gauge will be displayed at the bottom of the screen so you can observe who is winning the battle.
After Chapter 1, it is not possible to enter the boss’ area until you have survived several areas. You will find your arrow blocked when you attempt to face the direction where the boss resides. So move towards the direction you’re allowed. When you have defeated the final boss in Chapter Four, the game ends.
